Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 183
It's just that when Mr. Xie was going to stay overnight, there was a boy outside rushing to report: "Master, the shopkeeper has rushed over and said that there is something urgent to report."

Master Xie put his arms around Aunt Zeng and said a few words softly, then got up, put on his clothes, and left in a hurry.

When Mammy heard Master Xie's words outside, she was surprised and thought that Aunt Zeng was going to die this time.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Zeng's death proved her innocence, but Mr. Xie changed his mind. I have to admire Aunt Zeng's quick wit.

Otherwise, he would be so wronged by Mr. Xie, and if he was convicted, he would be so full of mouth that he couldn't tell.

Aunt Zeng leaned on the soft couch, and seeing Master Xie gone, she called Mammy in and said with a sullen face, "Go and find out who is framing me in front of Master today."

Mammy said in a low voice: "Except for that one, who else would make things difficult for Auntie?"

Aunt Zeng sneered, and believed in her heart that it was Madam Xie's good deed: "She won't cry when she sees the coffin, she can't see me well."

She rolled her eyes, and Master Xie's words reminded herself: "Isn't the mother-in-law at the corner gate of the yard greedy for money? Give her a bag of silver taels, and encourage her to drink at night. As for the candidate, the mother will pick one." Those who are greedy for sex and money are fine."

Mammy was terrified when she heard that, she was going to destroy Mrs. Xie.

She swallowed, and finally nodded under Aunt Zeng's gaze.

I am Aunt Zeng's person, if I am not obedient, if the master becomes rich in the future, how can I think of her?

Nanny gritted her teeth, for the sake of the family's future, she went all out against her conscience.

At night, a scream came from Mrs. Xie's yard.

Master Xie hurried over from Qinglan Garden, Aunt Zeng was behind him, her mouth twitching indistinctly.

It's just that when he came back, his face was not good-looking, but it wasn't gloomy.

Aunt Zeng felt strange, and asked next to him: "What happened to Madam's yard, it's so noisy at night?"

Mr. Xie waved his hand and said, "A drunk broke into the backyard. The woman guarding the door happened to go to the latrine, but she let him in in the blink of an eye. Madam was a little frightened, but the maid beside her was treated lightly. , with a loud voice that startled everyone."

Aunt Zeng was taken aback for a moment, secretly resenting that she let Mrs. Xie escape.

It's all because of the tight schedule and not being able to plan more carefully. The lazy man probably won't be able to move his feet when he sees a beautiful maid. How can he go in and pay attention to an old lady?
Master Xie just sat down, and when he heard that the shopkeeper had come again, he frowned and left.

Aunt Zeng almost tore the veil off, but this time it won't work, Madam Xie is prepared, so it's hard to do it again.

I can only wait for a while, and wait for Mrs. Xie to relax for a while before doing it again.

She was angry for a while, seeing that Mr. Xie hadn't come back for a long time, and she was too tired, so she simply lay on the soft couch, and asked the servant girl to watch in front, if Mr. Xie came back, she would wake herself up quickly.

Who knew that Aunt Zeng just fell asleep when she was thrown to the ground, the pain made her almost unable to open her eyes.

She thought it was someone who didn't have eyes, but when she opened her eyes and saw the angry Mr. Xie, she was so frightened that half of her soul died.

She huddled into a ball tremblingly, only felt that Master Xie's face was so gloomy as ever, as if he was about to eat people: "Master, my concubine shouldn't be asleep..."

Thinking that Mr. Xie was upset that she fell asleep without waiting for him, Aunt Zeng didn't care about her stomachache, so she hurriedly apologized.

Master Xie's eyes fell on her like a knife, he waved his hand to call back the maid who was going to help Aunt Zeng, and snorted coldly: "It's also because of my soft ears that you came up with such a bad idea. After listening to your words, I'm afraid It’s about losing everything!”

Aunt Zeng was dumbfounded, after thinking about it, it wasn't just about the shop, she couldn't figure out what happened to the accident, she panicked and said: "Master, my concubine is also kind..."

"It was indeed a kind heart. I gave everything and took all the sources of goods. Now I realize that those people on the opposite side dug a hole for Xie's family, just waiting for me to jump in!" Master Xie's eyes fell on Aunt Zeng. Sao, if he hadn't listened to the stupid woman, how could he be so desperate?
It was such a coincidence that the other party opened the door, and he met this stupid woman, and finally bought all the goods after listening to her.

Now the opposite door has changed people silently, and it is clear that he left when he bought the goods.

After buying all the goods, except for a few close friends, only he and Aunt Zeng knew about it.

Those confidantes have been with me for more than ten years, and they have always been loyal, and Aunt Zeng has only known each other for a few months.

The more Mr. Xie thought about it, the more suspicious he became. Could it be that this stupid woman cooperated with those people and wanted to destroy Xie's family?

He left with a dark face. Aunt Zeng was pale for the rest of her life after the catastrophe. She got up and wanted to go out to inquire, but was stopped by two thick women: "Master told me, Auntie should rest in the yard."

Aunt Zeng was taken aback, Master Xie asked her to ground her feet?
But so far she still doesn't understand what happened to make Master Xie so angry!
She wanted to ask the maids around her to inquire, but who knew they had disappeared.

The woman who guarded the door said: "They are not good at serving the aunt. They were tied up by Madam Yu just now, and they were sold directly to human teeth without confiscating any money."

Aunt Zeng's heart sank for the most part, Mammy Yu must have been ordered by Master Xie to sell her people around without authorization, did she not even give her a chance to explain?

She became more and more worried, and her stomach ached again, so she had to yell for the master to call the doctor to take a look.

The woman who guarded the door sneered, "Auntie, stop pretending and have a good rest. After waking up, there may be something waiting for Auntie."

Aunt Zeng was so frightened that she no longer dared to shout at the door, so she hid in her room and sat down in a daze.

It was just that she was frightened, and her stomach hurt more and more. She lay on the bed and fell asleep, unable to even speak.

Mrs. Xie heard that Aunt Zeng was seriously ill, her whole body was feverish, she was almost on the verge of a fever, but in the end she asked someone to hire a doctor.

She knew very well that the child in Aunt Zeng's womb must belong to Master Xie.The Xie family doesn't have many heirs, one more is always good.

The doctor came over and managed to prescribe a few prescriptions, which made Aunt Zeng's fever go away, but a woman came to report: "Ma'am, Aunt Zeng is... crazy."

"Crazy?" Mrs. Xie was shocked, but she didn't expect Aunt Zeng to go crazy in such a good way: "What did the doctor say?"

"It's just that I was frightened, and I had a high fever all night, and my brain burned out." The woman sighed inwardly, and said: "The baby is fine, but the doctor came to ask if you want to keep the baby?"

"Naturally, it is the child of the Xie family." Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief, waved her hand and said, "Talk to the master and let the child stay. Later, the child will be brought to me to raise, and it will not delay anything."

If it's a concubine's daughter, a biological mother who has fallen out of favor can't make any troubles, just prepare a dowry later and send her out.

If it was a concubine, Mrs. Xie understood that Mr. Xie was always worried about not having an heir. If it was another woman, she would always be worried.If it was Aunt Zeng who fell out of favor and went crazy, she would have to adopt her child anyway: "Send a few more nuns to follow Aunt Zeng, and be sure to take good care of her. When she gives birth to a child smoothly, everyone will be rewarded."

Just as the mother-in-law agreed, another servant girl came to report: "Ma'am, the master asked someone to open the warehouse, saying that he wanted to take out all the things."

Mrs. Xie was startled, and hurried over to have a look.Master Xie is not taking things, he is clearly going to empty the warehouse!

"What is the master doing, there is the old lady's dowry in the treasury..."

Those were supposed to be for Xie Ruitong, but she still kept them, who knew that Mr. Xie moved away without saying a word, so he had to go forward and ask.

Master Xie said impatiently: "The money for the goods has not been paid, and the shop is getting more and more difficult. I have to pawn the things first and exchange some silver. When I get over it later, I can redeem it."

Mrs. Xie's heart turned cold. Although these things are expensive, they can't even be exchanged for half of the price if they enter the pawn shop.

Mr. Xie sent so many things in, I'm afraid there will be no return.

"Master, don't worry, I can borrow some from my natal family if the turnover is not coming. If it doesn't work, the master's old friend is also fine, otherwise the warehouse is empty. If I want to entertain someone in the future, wouldn't it be difficult to resist? After all, Tong'er has already followed the prince. In the future, dignitaries and dignitaries will come to visit us."

Mrs. Xie felt sorry for these things, but Master Xie refused: "There is no need to disturb the in-laws, Tong'er has not settled down yet, let alone talk to the prince."

He couldn't afford to lose this face. At the beginning, he was so high-spirited that he wanted to make the other party fall hard.Unexpectedly, in the end, he fell miserably.

There are so many old friends around who are waiting to see his jokes, Master Xie can't let them know what he says.

The pawn shop is not a good choice, but the people chasing the money have been making trouble in the shop these two days, and their voices have plummeted.

If this continues, the business will be impossible, and it will be even worse!

Mrs. Xie looked at the empty warehouse, and she was so distressed that she almost burst into tears: "Quickly, send someone to report to the eldest girl!"

The pawn shop has a big appetite, and seeing Mr. Xie's downfall, he had to lower the price.

The things in the warehouse probably cannot satisfy the pawnshop, let alone the money for Mr. Xie.

Rather than watching Mr. Xie evacuate the entire Xie mansion, she would rather greet Xie Ruitong first, and indirectly ask the fifteenth prince to help.

Xie Yanniang was not surprised to hear that Mr. Xie evacuated the Xie Mansion.

The regent dug such a big hole waiting for him, it's no wonder Master Xie didn't fall for it.

It's just that she didn't expect that Aunt Zeng went crazy.

But it is not clear whether it is true madness or fake madness.

Xue Ling couldn't help sighing: "The Xie family is such a big family, the storeroom has been evacuated, how will we live in the future? Fortunately, the girl has left long ago, otherwise I would have to suffer."

"It's not enough." Xie Yanniang's ultimate goal was to preserve her reputation, but she asked Master Xie to sever ties with her.

Xue Ling was startled, seeing that Xue Yan was not there, she immediately understood where she was sent by the girl.
